Good Luck – Our final meet of the season will be the Summer Divisional Championships (August 1-3 @ Crawfordsville HS). This short course meet will give our swimmers a chance to wrap up the summer by racing for some hardware. An informational email was sent to all participating families. Good luck to our swimmers in action this weekend and GO WTSC!

 

Age Group State Recap – WTSC swimmers turned in several noteworthy performances at the Age Group State Championships led by Molly Memmer, who made the first Zone cut of her career in the 100 Freestyle. Grady Mosby turned in a new lifetime best swim in the 50 Freestyle and Ethan Rodgers recorded a team high 18th place finish in the 50 Breaststroke.

 

Futures Recap – Katie Countryman represented WTSC against some of the best swimmers in the Midwest at the USA Swimming Futures Championships in Madison, WI. Katie picked up new Speedo Sectional cuts in the 100 Butterfly and 100 Backstroke, swimming those events as bonus events, and recorded a top finish of 42nd place in the 50 Butterfly.

 

Last Practice – Our last official practice of the summer will be today, Thursday, July 31. As is our custom, we will take August off so our swimmers can get their school year off to a good start and everyone can recharge their batteries for another awesome season of WTSC swimming.
